How do you cope with adult DC nocturnal activities

[Crowdblundering]

WAA!

DS1 (19) has started having his GF to stay as they have been together a while now.

She is lovely etc.

He has the room directly above mine and all so have been able to hear for the last hour is the bed banging WAAA!

Argh this is worse than walking in on my parents which was pretty bad - who do people cope?! 🙈😱

I hate it.

And they are showing no signs of moving out 😂

Sex is lovely between two people (or three if that floats your boat...)
But the rest of us don't want to hear it (especially if we aren't getting any ourselves...)

Mangos I totally disagree. While I sympathise with OP and don't want to hear my kids having sex, I would MUCH rather they did it with my blessing and knowledge in a safe place than doing it in the back of a car/behind a bike shed etc and keeping it a secret from me.

Openness is the only way to keep lines of communication open between parents and kids. If you want your kids not to tell you anything, banning them from doing things is the way to do it.

You'd complain/be embarrassed if it was the happily married neighbours too, not just your own DCs.

Keep texting - next one should say "shall I look you out a pillow as padding for your bed" (or the snapchat of condoms will do nicely).

I'm willing to bet quite a lot of money he will NOT be making noise at home again. Whether he'll be too embarrassed to bring her again, or whether he'll be as quiet as a mouse, I don't know.
